Hi
I was forced to do an emergency upgrade to RaceCafe as we were suffering extended outages. Everything seems OK now. You will see a few visual issues with colours etc but I we get round to fixing those over the next few days. The main priority was to get things up and running again.
Cheers

The Barbarians defeat saw the slide 3 places down the ladder while their conquerors - the Kauri Kats - held station despite the win. The new leaders are the Joker-playing Whanau whose powerful victory took them up 5 places to the top of the table while their victims - The Turbos - remain in the cellar. A win for The Chiefs kept them firmly ensconced in 2nd spot while the Ferdies gained two places with a win. The harness brigade each lost a couple of places in defeat while the Hurricanes climbed above the Blue who they defeated. With only 3 Jokers played out of 20 there are sure to be dramatic changes to come.

The Barbarians hope tried hard but couldn't quite reel in her stablemate so the Kauri Kats prevailed with MVP Graeme bagging a BB in the last to just nail Mike, who was also on the winner, by $1.40. Catalano claimed Man of the Match honours by running down Sharne but hopes of a 5-zip victory were just foiled by Graeme's BB. Kats took a bonus point for the 4-1 margin and did well to defeat the table leaders.

The Chiefs had it won before the last which was just as well as they all missed. The Sulkies couldn't win but Robert salvaged a point for them with a BB to reel in Ian and claim a bonus point for a higher aggregate as well as denying the Chiefs a bonus point for a 4-1 margin. Rees was Man of the Match just edging Chiefs MVP Casper who did well to tip 6 winners on a tricky day.

The Thieves had a slim chance to steal it in the last but neither of Roland's two tips yelped so the Ferdies, who all missed the final winner, held on adding a bonus point for a team profit. For the Thieves Harewood bagged a BB in the last with Rob also scoring however Jack was their MVP with the 'Naki's saviour Cam, Man of the Match. Apologies for my dismal effort but well done team.

The Whanau certainly knew when to play their Joker and despite being 0-3 behind early on came back to win adding a point (which became two) for a team profit. The party was spoiled slightly in the last when Lloyd bagged a BB to catch Rosina with Korio (snagging a Q) and Rex also scoring. The Whanau's final collects came from Rosina and Damion. Isaac was Man of the Match with a massive tally while Gruff with 6 winners was Turbo MVP.

Danish Twist could have turned it around late for the Blues but she could only manage 4th so the slump continues for the City of Sails, Pete making their final collect landing a BB and claiming Man of the Match honours. The Hurricanes final $$ came from MVP Hesi with a BB and Porky. Both teams need to find top form again. Maybe daylight saving will help.

To win:
The Blues need-
Danish Twist to win for Gordy
OR
Denmagic to win for Howie & Brian (4-1 win)
The Barbarians need-
Dixie Blossoms to win for Catalano & Steve
The Thieves On Wheels need-
a Sort After/Magic Alibi quinella in some order and hope it pays enough
The Flying Sulkies and Turbos can't win
